Very Nice Shed

I purchased the LIFETIME 60095 10 X 8 shed. I strongly suggest you go to the LIFETIME web site , locate the building and take a look at the approximate 9 minute video. The company also has an installation/assembly video plus there is a several part video on U-Tube. This will give you some indication of the complexity of the assembly of the building. There should be two people to do the assembly, other wise you will by involved in assembly for days. I am not going to go into detail about the description of the shed as you can find this on the web site for the company. The shed is of very good quality and should last many years. I would point out some features that I believe are worth discussing since, my old building, the one I am replacing, did not have these features. This building has numerous steel reinforcements throughout the roof and walls. Some of the steel will hold shelving which you may decide to purchase separately, mine came with two shelves. The doors work well as opposed to the old building I had and there is also light from three windows and two skylights, which I have not had in the past. I did have to “shimmy” up two of the sides to get the building a little more “flat”, so the doors would open better. Be sure and remove the protective coating sheets from the skylights and windows before installing. You will need a perfectly level surface on which to start assembly. I had 12” X 12” blocks set in sand for my previous building and while this worked OK it was not perfect. After assembly, we had to “shim” up one corner and some of the wall in order to get the walls to fit. When laying the floor out for installation it appears to be a rather simple and easy process. BE SURE and be ready to do the floor assemble as soon as possible We let the panels sit in the 90 degree plus temperature in Texas and one of the panels started to warp, making it very difficult to assemble the floor. After a period of time the floor came together.Site cut me off!

Great choice(s)!

I own TWO Lifetime sheds a 10 x 12 and a 10 x 15. Mine pre-date the current offering. It would serve no purpose to downgrade their product and would expect improvements have been made. But why? Visitors are interested when they first see them. They are water tight! They look good! Internally, make it what you need: shelves, racks, open floor. READ the assembly instructions! It will make you job easier!

Very disappointed today!

They came to install my shed yesterday and today I am one unhappy woman! I have waited so long to save up to purchase this shed and I am today thinking that I made a mistake on purchasing the right shed for my purpose. I have a business that sells fabric laces, and embellishments and wanted to use this shed for my stock. I live in California and we do not get much rain here. I thought that I better hose the shed off this morning to make sure it was not leaking before I started putting my stock in there. Guess what....yesterday one happy lady and today VERY DISAPPOINTED! The shed was leaking thru the windows, under the door and under the walls onto the floor! The doors have a large gap under them so the water and other creatures can come in. If you want to hose the concrete slab off you cannot otherwise you will get water coming in thru the bottom of the walls and front door. I got down on my hands and knees and I could see many places that the light is coming thru. I paid the extra money to have this installed as I thought I better have a professional do the job correctly. It seems as though this shed is a good looking product from the outside but will not hold up in heavy rain, only to protect the things inside from the sun. This shed has gaps in the floor and the doors which does not prevent water from coming into it. Please consider purchasing this product as you may be disappointed also!

We painted it and love it! Would buy again

We have had our shed for a couple years now. We live in the country and get high wind gusts 50/60 miles an hour and have had no issues. You do need to follow building instructions & make sure you build a platform base out of treated lumber. There are good videos on line that helped a lot with construction. We also painted it red with white windows & door, to match our garage next to it. It painted beautifully, matched the garage perfectly & has held up so far. The only issue with painting was on the shutters we ordered separately & the circle vent at the top on one side. Both are made of a different plastic which doesn't hold paint well. We just ordered paintable shutters from Menards & gave the vent another coat or two after the 1st winter. We love our shed & use it often & would definitely buy again.

Hope that you receive it on time.

We ordered this shed in July. It was delivered in September (3 weeks late). Normally this would not have been a problem, but since we moved to a mobile home, we needed the storage area before the closing occurred on the house we sold. My husband is desperately trying to put it together without any help before the closing which is tomorrow. Building this shed is a lot of work. We thought we would have several weekends to work on it. My husband is very handy and it's difficult for him. The product itself may be wonderful. We don't know yet. But the inconvenience we went through to get it was not worth it.

Decent structure...awful instructions

The shed itself is fairly decent. However the assembly instructions are horrible, and need to be addressed. Cryptic 3 letter codes (AGK, DFW, etc.) are absolutely meaningless, and the tear out parts list is of no help, because it's just as bad. I've assembled items like this before and the manufacturer used adhesive labels (Right Front Door, Back Left Roof) to clearly tell where that piece is placed during assembly. If there are many fasteners of a single size, put them into one package, and not 12 smaller bags/pouches. That gets confusing. Based on the issues my finace and I had during assembly I don't know if I'd recommend this product.

Nice Litte Shed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased my shed 6 months ago, it holds my 42" riding mover my push mower and most all my yard tools as I had hoped. My only problem is that it leaked until I caulked the roof. Other than that it's been great. Assembled myself with very little help.

Instruction Bad

I purchased this building 4 days ago, I do not have it completely assembled and I have to write a review. The assembly instructions are the worse I have ever seen. I have 40 plus year of maintenance background and I am still assembling this building. I have no wifi in the area I am assembling. For $1000.00 why not include a CD. How simple it would be to number the parts. You reference in the instruction A** parts not one part started with an A. I was shorted 6 of the # 12 screws about 2" long. If I was not so far into this shed I would have put it back in the box and returned it.

Take stock of the parts list!

I worked hard for two days leveling the foundation (wooden frame on skids), and finally got around to opening the boxes and found that there was a truss channel missing, which put the build on hold for a few days. Lifetime had packed an extra truss but shorted the package one notched truss channel. They shipped out the correct piece and no problems assembling the shed. Take your time and get a friend to assist you. You'll need the extra hands. But for the error in the package list, I would give it five stars.

Nice shed - roof pieces didn't fit together nicely

Like the shed but had a few problems. The first panel we put up was not the right height. I called about it and they indicated the height was within tolerance. It made the alignment roof very difficult where I had to figure out how to clamp things in place so I could get the roof pieces aligned. We also got shipped the wrong roof cap end piece. I called and they shipped the right one and only took a couple days to arrive.
